if the coffeemaker has been turned on.
6. During and after brewing:
The Brew Pause™ feature allows you to
remove the carafe from the heater during
mid- brew. The brewing process does not stop
during this period, only the flow of coffee from
the basket stops. Do not remove the carafe
for longer than 30 seconds or the coffee
may overflow the basket. While we offer
this feature, we do not recommend that
you pour coffee before the cycle has reached
completion, since the coffee brewed at the
beginning of the cycle has a flavor profile
which is very different from the flavor at the
end of the cycle. Removing a cup during
the brewing cycle will alter the flavor of the
finished pot.
Once the coffee has finished brewing, stir it
before serving to blend the flavors. The coffee
at the bottom of the carafe will be somewhat
stronger than the coffee at the top.
CLEANING AND
MAINTENANCE
COMPLETELY CLEAN AND DRY
ALL PARTS AFTER EVERY USE.
Always turn coffeemaker OFF and remove the
plug from the electrical outlet before cleaning
unit. Lift lid of coffee maker and remove the
filter basket from its holder. Discard the filter
paper and ground coffee. The filter basket can
be washed in warm soapy water and rinsed
thoroughly, or cleaned in the upper rack of
the dishwasher. Once clean, replace the
filter basket.
Remove the carafe from the heating plate.
Discard any remaining coffee. The carafe and
lid can be washed in warm soapy water and
rinsed thoroughly, or placed in the dishwasher.
The carafe and carafe lid should be placed on
the upper rack only.
Do not use scouring agents or hash cleaners
on any part of the coffeemaker.
Never immerse base unit in water or other liq-
uid. To clean base, simply wipe with a clean,
damp cloth and dry before storing. Wipe heat-
ing plate with a clean, damp cloth. Never use
rough, abrasive materials or cleansers to clean
the heating plate. Do not dry the inside of the
water reservoir with a cloth as lint may remain.
DECALCIFICATION
Decalcification refers to removing the calcium
deposits that form over time on the metal parts
of the coffeemaker. For best performance from
your Filter Brew
™
Coffeemaker, decalcify the
base unit from time to time. The frequency
depends upon the hardness of your tap water
and how often you use the coffeemaker.
If the coffeemaker begins to brew more slowly
than usual, or the coffee does not taste the
same, use the decalcification feature to clean
the interior. To decalcify, use a solution of
1
⁄3
white vinegar and
2
⁄3
water, filling the water
reservoir to capacity. Combine in a container
and pour into the water reservoir. Plug the unit
into electrical outlet. Turn to the ON position
and run until half the amount has brewed (6
cups). Turn the unit to the OFF position and
allow to sit for 10 minutes. Return the unit to
ON and allow the remainder of the liquid to
brew. Repeat the above procedure as many
times as necessary until a normal brew rate
returns, usually 2-3 times. With each repeated
cycle, use a fresh solution of vinegar and
water. Run one cycle of fresh, cold water
through the unit at the completion of the decal-
cification before using the unit again to brew
coffee.
REPLACING THE
WATER FILTER
To replace the filter
1. Remove the new filter from polybag and soak
in cold tap water for 15 minutes.
2. Remove the water filter holder from the
coffeemaker by lifting it out of the reservoir area
with your thumb and forefinger.
3. Hold the water filter holder lengthwise and
place thumbs in slots directly under arrows.
4. Pull open in opposite directions with thumbs
